The first attempt missed changing test files for tools (update_llc_test_checks.py). Original commit message: This implements the main suggested change from issue #56498. Using the shorter (non-extending) instruction with only -Oz ("minsize") rather than -Os ("optsize") is left as a possible follow-up. As noted in the bug report, the zero-extending load may have shorter latency/better throughput across a wide range of x86 micro-arches, and it avoids a potential false dependency. The cost is an extra instruction byte. This could cause perf ups and downs from secondary effects, but I don't think it is possible to account for those in advance, and that will likely also depend on exact micro-arch. This does bring LLVM x86 codegen more in line with existing gcc codegen, so if problems are exposed they are more likely to occur for both compilers.
